Introduction to ServerSync

ServerSync Requirements:

Support for both Windows and Linux.
Synchronized files must be on a physically attached disk to the machine running ServerSync
You cannot synchronize files located by a UNC or Network path

You can use FileCloud ServerSync to help synchronize a local file server with a FileCloud Server or FileCloud Online (hosted by CodeLathe).

Changes in the local file server are seamlessly synchronized to a remote FileCloud Server or FileCloud Online site. These changes include:

New files added
Edits to existing files
Files being removed

ServerSync can also optionally sync FileCloud's folder-level permissions.

The FileCloud permissions can be synchronized to local folders
These permissions are applied as NTFS Permissions

You must log in with the user account that is the original owner of the files for folder-level permission synchronization to work
